“Stairway to the Stars”: Golden age of cinemas in Devon

By Exeter Local History Society

Overview

Jon Bell, an Exeter Redcoat Guide, will present this popular talk on the Golden Age of Cinema in Devon, focusing especially on Exeter.

This is the story of cinemas in Devon during their ‘golden age,’ roughly from the 1920’s to the 1960’s, with a bit of a glance at both earlier and later times.

The talk will take in the cinemas, the people who built them, the audiences, and some of the films they went to see.

There is a song, of course!
